Andreas Kissenbeck – Wenn ALLES aus NICHTS ist, wozu dann SCHOKOLADE? - Konzert. Lesung. Schokolade
With his stage program, Andreas Kissenbeck inspires all the senses and takes his audience on a journey to the big questions about humanity and the cosmos. Through music, humor, and melting chocolate, he ignites a sensual fascination for all that we know, what we do not know, and what we may never know. He shows what scientists have researched, philosophers have imagined, and artists have created to provide answers.
It is about EVERYTHING: Where does the universe come from? How does our consciousness arise? Is artificial intelligence someone, and can it be married?
It also concerns NOTHING: Why are there nine different types of it? How can there be artworks made from nothing?
And of course, it is about CHOCOLATE: Why is it a symbol for the meaning of life among philosophers?
Sometimes, more than words are needed. Kissenbeck has composed piano pieces on various topics that invite reflection. The tasting of chocolate is also directly connected to the content and opens a gateway beyond the limits of reason.
The allure of the mysterious, the sounds of the piano, and the taste of chocolate transform the moment into a unique experience. An evening for music lovers, amateur philosophers, art enthusiasts, curious minds, and for connoisseurs who appreciate the sweet moments of life.
